Chapter 1711: Chapter 1324: Seeing Through, Part 2
Forces like the Li family specifically dispatched clansn and disciples to inform their vassal forces, thinking that gathering greater and more powerful allies could help better overco this crisis.
Nobody would be foolish enough to doubt the reliability of the news, as it is the speculation and judgnt of dozens of Heavenly Immortals!
Therefore, many Heavenly Immortal powers already plan to deploy their hidden great abilities, hoping to surprise the Devil Race and Sea Clan when the ti cos.
This catastrophe is a massive test and tribulation for the entire East Continent Immortal Tao, potentially shaking its very foundation, so every effort must be made to ensure nothing goes wrong!
“Alas! Who would have thought that after just a few hundred years of peace, another great battle would break out, and it sounds extrely dangerous and severe…”
“I actually hope major battles break out often, because only in such tis can we gain further inheritance!”
“Heh, regardless of the reason, we loose cultivators always bear the brunt of it.”
Faced with the imminent battle, each loose cultivator showed their attitude; so were fearful and uneasy, so were tense and excited, and so were cynical.
Even under these circumstances, even loose cultivators were being massively conscripted to combat the impending battle!
…
Mount Wanxian.
“Have the Ten Thousand Spirits Alliance, Devil Race, or Sea Clan joined forces?”
Li Zhirui, who was originally refining Immortal Pills in the cave mansion, was startled by the urgent Knocking Bell, causing the success rate of the Immortal Pills in his hand to plumt. After coming out, he quickly inquired about recent events.
After reading through, he breathed a sigh of relief.
In truth, the pressure faced by the Li family is not that great.
Firstly, the eastern sea area need not be worried about, as not many clansn need to be stationed for defense because of the Dao Oath made by the Sea Clan; they cannot attack this place.
Secondly, the Ten Thousand Spirits Alliance to the north has temporarily been repelled, and the Li family occupies the gorge, offering a significant geographical advantage. Unless they dispatch nurous beings, it’s difficult to break through the Immortal City.
Moreover, Jiang Fengwu, Shen, and Li Mingyao, three Earth Immortals, personally sit here; one manages the Great Array, one has the Cave Heaven’s support, and one is bolstered by the Divine Domain, together making the already easily defensible Immortal City solid as iron, indestructible.
The southern side is even less of a concern, purely filled with Immortal Dao powers, no alien race.
The only concern for the Li family is the northwest border, the section adjoining the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, which is the most likely place for battles to erupt near Shanhai State.
Li Chongmiao and several elders had long since deduced this.
Their urgency in asking Li Zhirui to exit seclusion was to have him lead clansn northwest to resist potential invasions by the Devil Race.
“I understand.”
Li Zhirui did not refuse and said very directly, “First gather a group of clansn to set off with now, then you can arrange things slowly.”
“Thank you, Ancestor Rui.”
“It’s no trouble.”
It took less than an hour, and everything was ready.
Two gigantic cloud boats enhanced for defense, an Earth Immortal Rank Defensive Array, over a million talismans, a large number of pills, Thunder Pills, and other spiritual objects, and most importantly, a total of five thousand clansn!
“Let’s go.”
Li Zhirui scanned the crowd with his Divine Sense and imdiately knew that these clansn were the elite of the family, with many being Human Immortals and Individual Immortals.
With his command, the cloud boats activated instantly, ascending swiftly, and then turning into a streak of Spirit Light, disappearing without a trace.
“May all clansn return safely!” Li Chongmiao wished for a nearly impossible outco; where have you ever seen a battle without sacrifices?
He stood watching for a long ti before turning back to Mount Wanxian.
Among Li Zhirui’s group, he was the only Earth Immortal!
Xiaoqing and Cang didn’t co along for now; they had their own tasks but would arrive once completed. As for the other three Earth Immortals in the family, they were fending off the Ten Thousand Spirits Alliance attempting to move south.
If it were another Earth Immortal, they might not withstand such pressure, their mind fluctuating, but Li Zhirui was no ordinary person and wasn’t affected at all.
“We’ve arrived!” shouted the clansman steering the cloud boat loudly.
Looking down, Li Zhirui saw a flat area adjoining Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, with an occasional small hill, lacking the beneficial terrain of the Changli Mountain Range.
Previously, to guard against the Devil Race or hunt Devil Beasts in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain’s domain, the family had built two Immortal Cities here, which could now be fully utilized.
“First set up the Defensive Array and send a few clansn nearby to gather information; act cautiously, don’t expose yourselves.” Li Zhirui quickly arranged everything, ensuring that even if a sudden battle erupted, they wouldn’t make mistakes out of panic.
That evening, the clansn sent out to scout safely returned.
“Currently, there’s one good and one bad piece of news; the good is the Devil Race hasn’t acted yet and seems to be waiting for sothing. Additionally, their invasion isn’t solely targeted at the family. The bad news is that the Devil Race is fully prepared, waiting for an order to swarm out, with numbers at least one hundred thousand.”
“The family must build stronger defenses before the Devil Race acts, to resist and defend against their imminent invasion and attack,” Li Zhirui stated, frowning.
The Devil Race of Ten Thousand Demon Mountain has gone mad, splitting forces in multiple directions, unafraid of weakening themselves and ending up in dire straits?
He couldn’t understand why they would do such a thing, but now wasn’t the ti to ponder that, so he temporarily set it aside, planning to capture a Devil Race mber for questioning later.
“Yes!”
The night ant for rest had all clansn working overti to reinforce defenses due to the two acquired pieces of news.
Only when dawn broke, with skies turning to micro light, did the clansn, who toiled all night, finally stop to rest and restore their mana.
Thanks to the clansn’s efforts overnight, this originally rather sturdy Immortal City now had walls three feet thicker and several feet taller, looking like an unshakable, towering mountain!
After a few hours, Li Zhirui had restored himself to peak condition.
Yet, for so reason, he still felt uneasy and couldn’t stay in the quiet chamber, so he went to the city wall, seeking a mont of relaxation amidst nature.
“What’s that?!”
Unexpectedly, his impulsive act led to the early discovery of the Devil Race’s movent.
Looking far off, a black tide surged towards their location at breakneck speed, engulfing everything in its path.
“Everyone, get on the walls imdiately and prepare for the battle!” Li Zhirui’s voice instantly resonated throughout the Immortal City, reaching all the cultivators’ ears.
“So soon?!”
“Luckily, everyone finished reinforcing last night, otherwise we would be in danger if we were a day late.”
“Finally, they co! I’ve been waiting for this for a long ti.”
So clansn were shocked and terrified, while others breathed a sigh of relief, and others were full of confidence, but regardless of their mindset, the black tide was just a hundred miles from the Immortal City.
As it approached, everyone drew a sharp breath as they witnessed the sheer number of devil beasts, far beyond the hundred thousand they feared.
For a mont, the heavy atmosphere quickly expanded, encompassing the entire battlefield.
Thump thump thump—
A certain clansman could almost hear their heart beating in fear.
Because the Devil Race wasn’t just nurous, their strength was formidable, with several Earth Immortals among them!
Whereas on the Li family’s side, only Li Zhirui was present as an Earth Immortal.
Roar—
Tens of thousands of devil beasts roared in unison, their sound waves alone were quite formidable.
Fortunately, the Defensive Array was activated in ti; otherwise, many clansn would be injured or fall as soon as they t!
“Attack!” commanded Li Zhirui calmly and steadily.
His voice was full of influence, calming the clansn’s fears and gradually restoring their composure.
Boom boom boom—
Thousands of Spirit Lights of various colors suddenly appeared in mid-air, carrying terrifying might directly into the Devil Race.
Considering the density of the Devil Race, an ordinary fireball could impact a dozen; how much more powerful is such a large-scale attack?
